There is indeed.

If I take the steps you describe in comment 10, I do not understand why you
have to mix a data named range with Autofilter; some additional step or
condition is not being explained in this report.

Let's review the 2 basic possibilities regarding the desired result / effect
for AutoFilter in this report, as far as I understand, with the information
provided.

If I say that I importing data to columns A:E, that could mean, for instance,
that I importing the data from a CSV, or with some other method. I add a
calculation to column F, enable AutoFilter on all 6 columns, and I have not
defined any data named ranged at all. In this case, the single list has 6
headers, each with its down-arrow to apply AutoFilter, and all the 6 filters
act as "AND", meaning that all conditions apply simultaneously to each row.

The alternative would be to have data named ranges (instead of none). In this
case, the entire list – meaning the 6 columns as a whole, including the
calculated values in column F – has to be named. For the purpose of this
report, it does not matter whether each column has its own data named range in
addition to the data named range for the entire list. Once the entire list (all
6 columns) are considered one list (i.e. one data named range), then the
AutoFilter should act on the entire list as an "AND", exactly as described.

So, that basically describes the 2 cases in which the AutoFilter would behave
as requested in this report for the entire list.

Taking the example provided in comment 0, you would need to define at least 1
data named range for the 2 columns together (letters and numbers, cells A1:B4),
so the 2 columns (and their AutoFilters) would behave as 1 cohesive list.
